Chinese fan runs on the court and hugs Lebron, gets tackled

Lebron James is the most talked about professional athlete of summer 2014.

So it only makes sense to post this video of Chinese kids jumping over the barrier to get up close and personal with their favorite player.

Remember the time a fan in Cleveland ran onto the court to greet Lebron and predict the future by wearing a T-shirt stating “Lebron come home 2014”?

Lebron did have coming though. He stole the spotlight away from a man in Miami who just drained a halfcourt shot by tackling him to the ground.

I think we can all agree that Lebron just wants to be loved.
